Outlook Express 6 port 110 Win98

Windows 98 SE. Can search the net but can't logon to Secure pages. Outlook Express won't check email either. Port 110 being used??? Ran ad-aware, spybot, and anti virus. Not norton or mcafee. Should i reinstall Win98? I tried reinstalling IE and Outlook but it says it can't find the files on the 98 CD.

From my understanding of your post, if a 'secure' page requires a logon and you haven't the proper credentials to access the page, you won't be able to access it - that's not a flaw but security permissions implemented by the page's site owner/webmaster.

Re port 110 being used, are you running an antivirus program for email?

If you're trying to reinstall IE and O/OE from a CD and cannot, your media may be scratched and/or your CD-/DVD-ROM may be broken/old/damaged..

If you're still having a problem, reply with more error details so your problem is better understood, or let us know if you resolved it and how.

It ended up being a verizon dsl problem. Apparently they changed the password for the account. When i called them they changed it again and ended up making it worse. Once they reset the account everything work.

Cool; glad the issue was resolved and thanks for posting back.
